Ask the Pedorthist:
3 out of 4 Americans experience serious foot problems in their lifetime.
*The foot contains 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments and 19 muscles.
*1/4 of all the bones in the human body are down in your feet. When these bones are out of alignment, so is the rest of the body.
*Only a small percentage of the population is born with foot problems.
*It's neglect and a lack of awareness of proper care - including ill fitting shoes - that bring on problems.
*Women have about four times as many foot problems as men. High heels are partly to blame.
*Walking is the best exercise for your feet. It also contributes to your general health by improving circulation, contributing to weight control, and promoting all-around well being.
